Chris has launched a petition to persuade Lewisham Council to improve recycling rates in Hilly Fields. He writes:

Lewisham council has a terrible reputation for recycling. This is
worse in its parks where the council no longer even separates waste for
recycling. There are not enough bins already and they are not emptied
often enough.

We need more bins that should allow us to separate out recyclable
rubbish so that cans, glass and cardboard can be kept apart from food
waste. And we need those bins emptied before they overflow. I volunteer to empty bins in Hilly Fields so I know how often people
have separated out their recycling and put them in different bags next
to already overflowing bins.
